The mobile mammography unit is customized for patient convenience and will deliver 3D mammograms to women age 40 and older. It is equipped with the newest 3D technology and offers patients the option of self-compression, meaning the patient will have the ability to control the compression once they are in position.
Patients should talk to their doctor about when to have a screening mammogram.
Certified radiologists read all mammograms and are double- checked by a computeraided detection system that detects more breast cancer than mammography alone. The patient and their physician will receive a copy of the results.
Mammogram screenings may be covered by insurance. For best coverage, patients should verify if Mercy Health –St. Charles Hospital is an innetwork provider with their insurance carrier.
Financial need-based assistance programs are available to those who are uninsured or underinsured. For more information, call 419-696-5839.
